The "weather guys" also gave it a name. I don't pay attention to those, but apparently Cyclones and Anti-cyclones (a.k.a. high and low pressure cells) has been in usage for years (sheesh, I remember it from science class back in the 60s). The "bomb" part, I don't know. The storm was a doozy, though, and had pressures and winds in some places like those of a hurricane. In any event, I saw lots of reports of tornados around some of our Southern friends and have worried over them. We just got rain and 60mph winds here, but north and west of us got hit hard. I also saw tornado reports for Mississippi and Alabama. I sure hope Charlie is okay, and that everyone of our members in this storm's path is safe.
